    RIP my dad, Peter

    My beautiful Dad Peter Carty passed away overnight on 5th July at the age of 62 with his beloved dog by his side.

    He only posted on here a couple of times, he was diagnosed with ALS in December 2020 and everything happened so quickly for him. Because of this he was never able to make peace with MND, so I seek solace that he is at peace now. Not sure if I believe in heaven but I like to think he’s back gardening, walking, cooking (& eating) BBQs and driving in his Audi he’d saved up for for many years.

    Miss you already Dad x

                    I'm staying positive and taking each day as it comes.

                            I wonder how much our attitude affects the progression? Very sorry to hear that your beloved dd has died.
                            Mum died with MND in 1979 – My sister and I have a wonky gene, probably inherited from mum. Reckon my MND started sometime in 2018.
